- 요약The diversity of individual-level characteristics of the workforce continues to grow and is an important field of research regardless of industry. Given this fact, a growing body of literature has sought to investigate the effects of job embeddedness both on- and off-the job as it relates to key workplace outcomes. Among the non-minority status employees on-the-job (organizational) embeddedness has consistently shown to have a stronger negative relationship with key workplace outcomes. However, little is known about the effect job embeddedness has among the lesbian, gay, and bisexual community, which is one of the largest minority populations in the United States. This study posits that among sexual minorities, namely lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) individuals may value off-the job embeddedness more than on-the-job as it relates to their willingness to relocate, which is a different pattern of results in extant literature. Specifically, when sexual minorities find communities, they perceive as safe and welcoming, it may result in a lack of willingness to relocate, which is a major concern for industries given that many companies require their employees to be mobile. Thus, this study is among the first to identify the differences in on- and off-the-job embeddedness and willingness to relocate between heterosexual and non-heterosexual (LGB) employees. Adopting a conservation of resource theoretical perspective this dissertation argues that off-the-job embeddedness factors represent an important collection of forces that LGB individuals wish to maintain and thereby limiting their willingness to relocate, thus higher levels of off-the-job embeddedness result in decreasing their willingness to relocate. Based on a two-time sample of (N = 507) heterosexual and non-heterosexual (LGB) individuals, this study tested if the relationship between job embeddedness and willingness to relocate is mediated by place attachment. Additionally, this study sought to identify if the mediating effect of place attachment is moderated by a person's sexual orientation.
